Obamanomics: Another Stimulus Package and Raise Taxes

Obamanomics: The Democrats are insisting that any fiscal cliff legislation has to include another stimulus package. Right. And the first one worked so well.

According to The Hill, Senate Democrats "say any deficit-reduction package negotiated in the coming weeks must include stimulus measures." Sen. Charles Schumer, the New York Democrat identified by The Hill as the party's chief political strategist in the Senate, has said, "We need to do something on stimulus as part of the overall fiscal cliff."

Schumer believes a second stimulus is necessary "because the economy is not growing fast enough in the first year or two."

Obama has to pay off his big business and union cronies again with another faux stimulus.He does not give two shits about America. If you think your current paycheck barley keeps up with inflation, imagine what your paycheck will look like when Obama adds the payroll tax holiday cut, back on.

That's exactly Obamas plan and then when people complain he will blame the republicans. He will be elected king dictator for life. What happens when the monopoly money runs out and Obama can't make payroll to pay for food stamps?

How can progressive liberals wonder why states want to opt out of Obama entirely?

quote:Meanwhile, Senate Democrats haven't passed a budget in any of the last three fiscal years and probably won't pass one next year. Sen. Patty Murray, who wants to chair the Senate Budget Committee in the next Congress, has told The Hill that she won't commit to moving a budget.

This is remarkable. The Democrats will continue to spend recklessly without even passing a budget — which, if done the right way, would give the economy a boost.

More economic trouble is on the way. But apparently this is what the voters asked for.

I agree with this 100%. The Democrats built this mess and all the republicans need to do is to let it happen. It will be painful for years to come but, it will finally take the "pay their fair share" argument away from the Democrats.

Add in removing Abortion/contraception from the GOP platform and then we can become competitive again.

This just goes to show that the Ds have no concern for the debt. The Rs need to let is all expire, The House needs to propose a balanced budget amendment and pass it, pass a budget with real reform and leave it to the Senate to ignore it. No more debt limit increases and if a budget is not passed shut down the government...
